Condensed Milk Frosting

---

I didn't have any confectioners' sugar, but i needed to make frosting. who knew you could use sweetened condensed milk? i must confess, i varied this recipe a little and added 1/2 cup or so of strawberries and 16 ounces of cream cheese (2 blocks). i also didn't have shortening and made this with all butter. i will post the recipe the way i found it at cooks.com. serving size is estimated.
